Do you need a gigantic motor for five inch freestyle | FPVCYCLE FIVE INCH MOTOR 

The more I flew these motors, the more I started to think there was something different about them. I dunno -- maybe I should do a blind A/B test. What do you think?

"He sent me these motors but I don't know the size because he wouldn't tell me." None of us believe that FPV's resident nerd didn't pull out the calipers and measure the stator.

One of my favorite parts about this hobby is how hobbyist driven it is. People like Kabab, Dave C, Allesandro, and Ummagawd are the ones truly driving the hobby forwards--the companies selling this stuff basically serve to mass manufacture their innovations. Kabab is literally just a dentist doing this stuff in his spare time. The new 2.4ghz long range crazy wasn't started by ImmersionRC or TBS, it was started by some dude in Australia with ExpressLRS--and it vastly outperforms the professional competition. What a time to be alive man.

Dude, you've gotten much better at flying. Seriously

the fun thing with those motors is that the money you send Bob goes 110% back into this hobby.

I need a T shirt with “I watched Joshua Bardwell & learned something” on it! 😃😎

Kabab has done so much for FPV. I found him early but it amazes me how many peeps in CA don’t have a clue

I love mine I have the white ones. I love the control they have.

I love all the new fence boards!

Yesssss dude. So excited about these

I love how they corner like love love the cornering but also it’s the pilot flying so well. The motors sound smooth and less aggressive. But that cornering is heavenly

I really liked all the tight freestyle around the fence. 👍

Love Bob's stuff.

Fantastic flying, Joshua!!! 😃 Thanks a lot for the review!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

I'd like these on my Mini 2 lol.. what a great video JB, awesome flying 👊💯

I found these what I call “cinematic motors” to be so incredibly smooth for the purposes of getting the smoothest dynamic footage it is a total game changer. Excellent work Kabab. Loved being able to show the exact type of shots movies capture that these can also do in my review.

Currently putting these on my Glide... Thanks for reviewing, JB!

Dig the Botgrinder shirt!

Awesome man

I have the 30mm motors. Love those things.

Hi Josh I have been looking at Bob's 2004 motors for a 4in I'm flying, but I'm liking these with the new tune. I will like to see more of them later to make sure that they don't dsink again. I would love to see them on a ultra light frame. Well Thanks for the video and information on Bob's motors.

Been waiting to see these motors fly... Man, I'm gonna have to build a 6s quad!

Just made my maiden flight with emerald version of these. Tekko32 f3, 96khz stock settings w rpm working fine. No desyncs! I must say that there is definitely someting here... Also power is insane even compered to my 1800kv 2208 Xings.

seem like nice motors.super nice rip too.

You need to start bouncing off that trompoline when your flying. It's so fun. I mean bounce with the quad not you 😂😂😂

FPV party at Joshua's....but you can't fly until you paint a cpl fence panels.

Like that shirt. Bought my son one that looked like ugly Christmas sweater with bot logo snd ringed with skull and bones. You the man

Nice navy blue ford mustang !

Ok, yes, wow is the correct response

Awesome

Love watching quads fly, especially with awesome pilots. I would have hit the barn, a few trees, a couple of sections of fence!!!!🤣🤣🤣

Joshua bardwell your props are amazing I switched from using johnny juicy and pb&j props in love how your props handle on my quad

I don't know what these motors are or the significance of them, but it's just a joy watching you fly.

You made a great point around the 3min mark about the Vortex from IRC as a bind and fly but I think its worth mentioning that the Vortex was $500!!! lol. Not only are BNF's much much better now but the price has come way way down from the days of yesteryear.

I have 3 vortex 250's from immersion rc ! I fly them all the time and I love them lol Its actually my profile pic thumbnail for RU-vid.

It seems to motors with higher torque tend to desync without lower startup power and high demag compensation. I had a lot of headackes about this with 10" quads.

Rocking a Bot shirt! Nice.

i can't help wondering if slower quads are just easier to fly, i went from dys 2207 2750kv and dal 5047's to a heavier quad with xing e 2207 2750 kv with iflight nepal 5140's, its slower but more linear and that thing were my dys dal combo with a good battery was very different at the beginning of the pack than the middle and end vanished, i've since moved to cheapo packs and its even better, it turns out theres very few circumstances where i need a 0-60mph of 0.3secs, turns out 0.5secs is plenty.

I got two 5" quads (Armattan Badger and Marmotte), both were running excellent on T-Motor F60 Pro IV 1750kv (6s). Replaced motors with the FPV Cycle 1880kv, have set the recommended ESC settings (demag/timing/rampup power as per FPV Cycle web site). They fly great, throttle control and resolution is excellent, so much power especially at low end, flying them is lots of fun, makes you feel confident TILL you get a desync, half desync and/or random wobbles/twitches during complex maneuvers like yaw-roll-flip which makes them unreliable and worthless especially if you fly bando and trying to hit a gap through the roof or flying miles away over mountains or over the water... Also I can hear something similar to bearing noise on a new motor! Nice but raw unfinished product. Sorry.

I think these motors fly great! Especially when carrying a heavy Hero8/9. I personally never had any desinc issues. Of course I already run all of my ESCs at the settings that he recommends. It improves the way all of my quads handle, plus I feel that I get longer run time as well. Another great product Kabab! Full disclosure... I am an FPVCycle fan boy though. Bob don’t make no crap

Glad it's good - Bob works hard and so his work had paid off

Awesome BotGrinder shirt 👍

That botgrinder shirt rocks

They care great for pulling out of crazy dives

Would like to try these motors.. But they are out of stock. And with the hype they are receiving now, most likely they will be, rest of the year, haha. Just like the glide frame. The glide lite, seems to be in stock 2 weeks, and then out of stock the next couple of months. I might be exaggerating now, but I might not be.

Also you can fly really low to the ground easier with these motors. The throttle control/ resolution is amazing

From a physics standpoint a wider motor is going to give you more torque but also have more inertial mass to spin up. Making the motor thinner would counter act that but would also reduce the advantages mentioned. This is something you would have to probably plot out on a chart to really see what the differences are between the motors. You would also have to back that up with data acquisitions.

Great video as always Joshua. I definitely think Bob shouldn't of given you any info about "what to expect" so you could totally fly them vanilla!

3:47 ... what a wonderful world

Who is Bob and I'm already ordering the motor 30 seconds in!!

Would be interesting to see some osd overlay action 🦆 Killer fying

Nice flying. Noticed that you are wearing the Orcas not the Skyzones, any reason why?

Can’t wait till summer! Fxxxk winter! Any word on what’s going on with the R-I’d? Someone making a module or is anything over 249 strictly out of the question 2022

Hi Josh, greeting from Bali Island, Indonesia. I have a situation here. I have 4 motors xing-e pro 2207 1800kv but the old stack (Foxeer F722 V2 ~ SucceX 45A) has been burnt somehow. And now I have another stack from Diatone (Mamba DJI 722 MK2 ~ F55_128K). The Q is: Can I use this new stack with the Xing-E Pro 2207 1800KV? Considering the Max Burst (Amp number. Kindly look forward to your answer. 🙏🏻😊 Thanks

These look sweet.. another choice of motors to upgrade to... just great.. they seem to have tons of punch too.. wondering if the 4s version of the emeralds would have the same outcome??

What if you put these on mr steeles quad 🤔

I got the green ones but the 1103ish size. I had desync issues and only flew 2 packs. Would it be the same for those or is it just the big dogs?

I can't get tight tracking like when you corner around the light pole. If I tried that my quad seem to drift or keep floating even though I've moved the sticks.

Can we get those motors in Liftoff?

Hello JB. Is the advertised weight correct ? and if so, how ???

I realize that this video was posted a year ago, but I have put lumenier zip 2407 1700kv motors on a 5inch quad, and I think they are some of the best motors you could get and put on a quad.

so whats currently the "best" freestyle motor now?

Because of these motors I was able to perform my very first power loop! Such awesome low end control!

#UPDATE: How to do a 3"-version of this video?

I see you have found ways to stretch out your content for more videos :) I don't blame you really. It makes sense with all the shorts and outtakes etc. I get that it helps with time etc and helps keep your YT standing with algorithms and views. I am taking notes on all this by the way ;)

I like mine alot on my 5" Apex that I used to run Mr Steele Stouts on. I LOVE the Stouts. However I run them with a 80% throttle limit and in a full throttle punch down my block I reach the top speed quickly and they stop accelerating. That is not a bad thing just something I notice. I run the throttle limit becuase I fly around my yard and want more low throttle resolution. Switching to the FPV cycle motors I run the same limit and on those down the block rips the FPV cylces keep pulling and I let off first. I have had no desyncs but I only have 6 packs through them and they were not very aggressive due to not wanting to dig my quad out of the snow if I crashed. I run them on a KISS FETtec stack. I "think" I notice a tad more low throttle control but my stouts are excelent and there isnt a big difference other than the down the block rip I mentioned. I also like the weight, my Apex was actuall too light for my tatse at 550g and the FPVcyles put me to about 561g and I like it more but still want to get closer to 580g.

It seems like Kabab made a good motor. It looks like it has a different power characteristic

Yes. Durability, power, performance. I used to smoke through 2207's, 2307, and the like. Started rocking 2407's...game changed.

Joshua, isen’t this just a lower KV of your old lovable 2407-7 2500KV? I would love to see a back-to-back test!

I wanna run these but the KV is a bit higher for my 6s builds

One love Joshua bardwell

no, but i respect bob for his innovation and pushing himself to try and find perfectly flying products.

JB said wow 38 times. We have ourselves a winner. #BobRoogiIsGod

What are your rates? I might try them!

wow

what is Desyncing??

I want the white storm trooper their so beautiful the 2207 1880kv I think.

By the way, I have heard these motors are really great at recovering from dives etc. They are supposed to be much smoother on the recovery.

Won't changing the motors mean that the PID settings would need to be changed also? If the motor has a different response, then it would change the response to the overall quad, which means the PID loop should be configured differently. To me, it sounds like a bench test would be a good way to tell the difference between motors - get thrust, vibration, power draw, etc. which then would be able to do steps/etc in the input speed, to see how it responds to the various changes. At which one could look at the response times, power efficiency, thrust, etc to figure out what motor would work best for a build.

To the moon!

How you supposed to know 4s, 5s, 6s??? Not a fan of kabob. Bardwell rules though!

You're a legend

I mean just look at his 1303 5000kv motors. they're just perfect. wider flatter motors give you speed and low end torque. its like a turbo charged 4cyl diesel motor in a jeep that gets 40mpg and doesn't' get caught in the weeds.

hey look,bardwell painted his fence for the first time lol,i think the motors are about 2504-2505 in size

Curious how these motors would feel on the Mr Steele build. Happy flying. 🤓

J can you seel me a set of goggles?????? Please!!!!! I'm getting th tyro 75s and the radio is decent but no gogs and i want the cobra x but on backorder so good luck.......I need to be in the air weather is getting nice and I want to rip!!!!!!!

Those dont look that big.. I use 2407 ethix konasty motors.. Those look like 2406 or maybe 2407, maybe even 2507.. Somewhere near there.. but I love the torque of larger motors. I gotta get my hands on some of these!!

Please tell me a UK retailer has ordered some

Hello JB! Mark Spatz blackbox tuning link? Please and thank you! 🖤📦

why are you steele using analog and never fly with the shark byte ?

How have I not seen this video?

Today I learned

There was a Racerstar 2403 motor back in the old days that was kinda similar in concept but the build and performance of that motor were terrible. Bob truly found something and made his motor right.

Yeah......I’m just gonna stick with my budget motors.

Just grab a Pachymeter and measure it. Cheers

Do you have a page somewhere with all your affiliate links, would be helpful if it was linked in your RU-vid profile.

A wider motor can spool the prop faster

Woot

Also have my eyes set on the gep rc Cygnet what should I do!!!!!!! I'm about to get a kite in a min!!!!! Novice 2 has crappy radio Novice 3 has crappy goggles......like wtf!!!!!I wish I could make my own bundle I would take the Cygnet with the lite radio and cobra x goggles!

Is there any problem to have better low throttle control by adjusting expo on throttle?
